Did you see the news story about Tyler, TX arsonists this morning?

Two young men who 'grew up in the same church' together have been setting churches afire in East Texas. The investigation uncovered material on "atheism and devil worship" in their personal belongings.

If they are in to devil worship, then they are still religious, not atheists. These two ideas are incompatible and mutually exclusive.

1. LOL

atheism and devil worship. That's as funny as the people calling Obama both a Nazi and a Communist. Two things that just don't go together.

2. Exactly!

Marks the first time an arson has made me laugh!

3. Wasn't this the case where there was one book related to atheism

and one related to devil worship, but THREE bibles?

4. Nice catch!

That wasn't mentioned in the article I read, but what inferences can be drawn? Did the Bible make them do it?

5. This has been all over the news for weeks.

I get the tv stations out of Tyler/Longview. The three sketches looked NOTHING like the suspects.
They were freaked out over an upsidedown cross supposedly on the arm of one of the inaccurate sketches, talking to a tattoo artist, etc.

I think they hate religion, but just to be shocking, they are devil worshipers. In east texas if you want to be truly shocking you are either an atheist, a devil worshiper, or a homosexual (fake or real).

6. Oh, the lengths a kid will go to to prove how bad they are!

I saw the AP story on it yesterday. Being in NY, we don't hear much about Texas shenanigans unless they are politically related. Did you ever see "Bakersfield P.D."? It was a sitcom from about 10 years ago -- the police sketch artist was a caricaturist who usually worked at the mall. Sounds like that person got the job in Tyler!
